THE EFFECT OF AUTHENTIC LEADERSHIP ON ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT AND BURNOUT

Authentic leadership that reflects the positive focus in positive psychology defines as being aware of their own and others’ values/moral perspectives, knowledge, and strengths; aware of the context in which they operate; and authentic leaders are confident, hopeful, optimistic, and resilient, have high moral character. Perceived authentic leader behavior creates high committed and engaged employees to organizations and low employee burnout in the organizations. The main purpose of this study is to understand the effect of authentic leadership on organizational commitment and employees’ burnout level. For this purpose, an empirical study was conducted with 144 participants in banking sector. According to the results of this study, if leaders behave authentically to their employees, their followers’ commitment level will increase, burnout level will decrease (only for balanced processing dimension of authentic leadership). The study is valuable to understand the meaning of authentic leadership in banking sector and also examine the possible results of leader behavior in the organizations.
